Burnout 3 is underrated as one of the very, very best games of all time because you can show Burnout 3 footage to people two decades later and their reaction will still be "hell yeah, this rules. I wanna play this right now."

My debut novel, The Paradox Paradox, IS FINALLY AVALIABLE! Get the eBook here RIGHT NOW for just £5! www.patreon.com/nerdcubed/shop
The cover of The Paradox Paradox. A minimilist style cover with 8 multicoloured threads decending down the page. At the mid point they begin to break apart and fade away.

I wrote this column and I'll just say that the original headline was much meaner. The piece itself, though, is still very angry and very mean, I assure you.

I discovered yesterday, in a mass email sent at 3am, that I will not be receiving the roughly £40,000 that my publisher Unbound/Boundless owes me for pre-order sales of The Paradox Paradox. The payment for five years of work, gone. #unboundless

one of my fav moments from GDC - they had a booth set up to play Balatro since it was an award nominee. I watched for a bit then I gave it a go myself. Crushed a white stake run someone approached me as I was about to leave 'Wow you must have played this before!' 'I guess you could say that'

Making minigames today has been super fun, got to learn about microphone streaming in Godot, and although quite basic, it made for really cool gameplay! That, however, you will have to wait for ;) I also did shaders. I still really don't get shaders. #GGJ25 #AGLJAM25
